Fashion Haiku I: Closing Time
Yes! Love at first sight
Manolo snakeskin slingbacks
Last pair in my size
No! Walk away now
Landlord knocks on door for rent
More tears than credit
But who needs shelter?
Running, flying back to Saks
Adrenaline rush
Doors about to close
Box set aside, tissue wrapped
Salesman knew I would
Credit card burning
Hole in pocket, hole in heart
Cash register hums
Moment of weakness
Knees shaking like autumn leaves
Such hot little hands
Sold! Take me home now
Never again ’til next time
Slingback number twelve
